Talk:Commercial sexual exploitation of children

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] NPOV

I'm not sure if this article is POV, but it keeps saying that commercial sexual exploitation of children is "bad". The article on murder does not explicitly say that it is bad, but defines it and talks about its legal status. Is this article NPOV?

  • Well, first of all, I don't see the word "bad" as such anywhere. "Worst" is used a couple of times, but at least the first use (and thus presumably subsequent uses) references the ILO's description of it - that is, the article is not saying it is bad, but saying that ILO says that it is bad. Second of all, it seems so incontrovertible that it is bad that it's probably not necessary to bend over backwards to avoid implying this. I'm sure the article on Murder is permitted to say "...the problem of random murders..." etc. without having to prove that random murders are a problem. I've removed the tag.

[edit] Merge w/ Child prostitution

They are exactly the same topic, by definition.

  • No merger - child prostitution is large enough to be a separate article. PianoKeys 17:33, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
